Deadline-day shambles leaves Everton and Moyes fighting the odds again

A messy transfer deadline day has left Everton and David Moyes scrapping against the odds again. The club went from accepting a bid for Adam Armstrong to the collapse of the Armando Broja deal, and The Guardian points the finger at owners. The Friedkin Group is described as amateurish and unambitious in the window, 20 months into a reign that has come alongside the move to a new stadium. The approach only adds to the longest trophy drought in the club's history.
